‣ Sacramento’s Julie Baenziger brings Sea of Bees to the Bootleg Theater tonight. That’s Sea of Bees’ video for “Marmalade,” above – I posted the song in June [see also my LA Weekly piece on Jules]. Sea of Bees plays early, opening the Submarines (who are likely to preview some material from their forthcoming third album) and Obi Best, who just released an excellent new EP, “Sentimental Education.” ‣ Nashville’s Bobby Bare Jr. headlines the Echo behind today’s release of his first album in four years. “A Storm – A Tree – My Mother’s Head.” ‣ Jenny and Johnny, the musical coupling of Jenny Lewis and Jonathan Rice, play a 6 p.m. in-store at Amoeba to celebrate today’s release of “I’m Having Fun Now.” ‣ Pacific Hurt gets a head start on next month’s Echo residency, headlining the Troubadour with Lesands and Mississippi Man.
